Author Description

A Destination Highway (DH) is a road you'd travel to, to journey on. DH Washington is part of the most in-depth motorcycle guidebook series ever produced for the dedicated enthusiast & casual rider alike. Our 28,000 mi (46,000 km) of riding research in Washington guarantees that you'll ride "like a local" in the whole state, & never again miss a road worth riding. Using the Total Integrated Road Evaluation System (TIRES) DHWA rates roads from a rider's perspective: Twistiness, Pavement, Engineering, Remoteness, Scenery & Character. What about roads that aren't quite worth "travelling to, to journey on" but worth checking out if you're in the area? Connected to or located near DHs, these Twisted Edges (TEs) are the side roads you always LOOK at as you ride by but seldom take. Now you'll know if they're worth doing. Acclaimed as the "biker's bible" (with over 12,000 copies sold) DHWA contains detailed numeric ratings, comprehensive road descriptions, 125 full color maps & a host of service information for everything a rider needs. The waterproof, 100% synthetic fold up DHWA Companion Map eases navigation, saves wear and tear on your book and gives you the "big picture" which neither the book nor GPS can. Make the most of your valuable time, rubber & gas, rather than wasting them on mediocre roads and/or major highways. Whether your touring style is two-up fully dressed, laid-back cruiser or knee-dragging sport, DHWA provides all the tools you need to find & enjoy your favorite Destination Highway, no matter what you ride, or how you ride so you "don't have to ride like a tourist, you can ride like a local! ". "Riders spend hours searching the internet for opinions & secret roads all found at their fingertips in mere seconds here!" PLEASE NOTE: Does not include the Garmin ready Companion GPS software. (See the joint DHWA/DHBC map image above & consider buying & riding with DHBC at the same time to increase your access to 50% more DHs and TEs!)
